AudioControl Speakers

The right size depends on the available mounting hole. Measure the diameter and mounting depth before you buy a speaker. We carry AudioControl models ranging from under 10 cm to 20 cm, as well as in the 6x9" format:

• Tweeters and small midrange speakers: dashboard, A-pillar, mirror triangle
• 10 to 16.5 cm: Doors, available as coaxial or component sets
• 20 cm and 6x9": larger mounting locations and the rear shelf

There is no single "best" speaker. The key factors are the vehicle, the installation location, and your budget. The EPICPRO Series is the affordable entry-level option, the A Series is the well-balanced mid-range option, and the PNW Series is the premium line offering the highest sound quality.

RMS power describes the power handling capacity during continuous operation and should match the power output of your amplifier per channel. Depending on the model, AudioControl’s RMS power ranges from less than 50 to 250 watts. Many manufacturers also specify an ideal value; for the PNW-65, for example, it is 75 watts RMS.

Precise tuning is achieved by adjusting the crossover frequency, level, and delay—ideally using an amplifier with a built-in crossover or a DSP. Always drive the tweeters and midrange drivers with a high-pass filter so they don’t have to handle low frequencies. You can find the recommended settings in the user manual, which is available for download on each product page on our website.

Avoid overloading your speakers by ensuring proper impedance and power matching. Here's how to protect your speakers:

• Select an amplifier with an impedance that matches the speakers (for example, the PNW-65 has an impedance of 3 ohms)
• Do not exceed the RMS power continuously and avoid clipping
• Use a high-pass filter appropriately to reduce the load on the midrange and tweeter drivers

Yes, if you want powerful, deep bass. An AudioControl subwoofer handles the low-frequency range, takes the strain off the door speakers, and delivers punchy bass. When using a subwoofer, you can set the high-pass filter on the door speakers to a higher frequency so they sound cleaner and louder.

Yes. AudioControl is a well-established U.S. brand in the car audio scene. The speakers impress with their clean craftsmanship and sophisticated technology, such as poly-mica cones, silk domes, and the point-source design of the PNW series. At MT Audio Shop, you can buy them online or pick them up in Pommelsbrunn.

Both series offer tweeters, midrange drivers, 16.5-cm coaxial speakers, and component sets. The A Series is the more affordable, well-balanced choice for factory upgrades. The PNW Series is the premium line, featuring higher-quality materials and a wider selection of models, including 10- and 13-cm drivers.
